Will Quebec and Ontario Change their Votes?

I think you might have a better handle on that actually as you live there. What do your friends and neighbors say?

Could it be that historically Quebec and Ontario have always held the power and the pull and are simply terrified of giving it up? Or is it that anyone living in downtown Toronto or Montreal have absolutely no conception of how us Westerners think? They listen to the Eastern based media who rarely if ever shine a decent light on the West, and that is all they know, or care to. Or maybe they simply like crooks and liars.

Québec votes Bloc. Last time, 54 seats out of 75. THat's not voting Liberal.

The Conservatives did not win the popular vote last year.

Ontario may wind up voting Conservative - if they can get over their fear.

Quebec most certainly will not. Quebec votes for the party with a Quebec leader first and always. If both parties have Quebec leaders it votes for whichever one offers them the most goodies.

Right now the Liberals have a Quebec leader. There is also the BQ. The chance of the Conservatives getting many votes there is practically nil. Regardless of policies.
